These sheets typically harmonize <br />the estimates and the complete set of documents assuring that <br />there are no oversights while pricing. For the Government Center <br />Annex project, these scope sheets will point out considerations <br />subcontractors should have for existing site conditions, connectivity <br />to existing systems and other items which may not be explicitly <br />defined in the documents, but required for the project. MCM’s <br />project team will thoroughly review these scope sheets to assure <br />there are no scope gaps between disciplines. They will assure the <br />scopes are complete and assigned to the proper trade, avoiding <br />scope gaps and potential cost impacts to the Government Center <br />Annex team. <br />SUBMITTALS <br />Quality Control will be implemented throughout the project, but <br />Quality Assurance comes from verification and documentation of <br />how Quality Control is implemented. Nowhere is this more evident <br />or critical than through the projects’ submittals. MCM views the <br />submittal process as our assurance that the A/E’s designs are <br />implemented flawlessly in the field. <br />Submittals serve to enhance and detail design for each assembly <br />installed in the field, and will bridge the gap between construction <br />documents and physical installations. MCM’s internal reviews are <br />conducted in painstaking detail, verifying submittal compliance with <br />the A/E’s documents. MCM will coordinate numerous workshops with <br />the Design Team for more critical or complex building assemblies <br />such as building envelope and operation systems if necessary. <br />CONSTRUCTION <br />Prior to commencement of an element of work, Juan Campos, Project <br />Manager, and project Superintendent Tony Manning, will meet <br />with subcontractors and/or suppliers, and review the submittals, <br />developing a pre-task plan to assure the highest level of quality is <br />achieved. They will discuss safety, contract requirements, applicable <br />codes and inspections, use of mockups, whether specified or not, <br />and overall coordination. This meeting will be documented by <br />meeting minutes and where coordination with the City of Sunny <br />Isles Beach or the A/E is required, their presence will be requested. <br />Once the pre-task plan is coordinated, work can commence and <br />QA documented through various methods including daily reports, <br />regulatory agency inspections, manufacturers’ reports, or the A/E’s <br />field observations. Copies of all inspection reports including a <br />record of deficient conditions and their correction are maintained <br />electronically in MCM’s servers. <br />Prior to a task being completed, MCM conducts an internal <br />inspection to assure compliance with the Contract Documents and <br />the approved submittals. As-built data is gathered and compiled in <br />PROJECT MANAGEMENT SERVICES <br />Miami-Dade ISD West Lot <br />Multi-Use Facility – To assure the <br />quality of the precast members, <br />MCM provided a panel mockup <br />for review and approval by the <br />Owner and Architect. MCM also <br />would inspect every delivery of the <br />precast double tees and columns <br />before unloading from the truck. <br />The members were inspected for <br />any cracks or imperfections that <br />may have been caused during <br />transportation and to assure it met <br />the precast mockup. Each piece <br />noted was then recorded in a log <br />and re-inspected by the design <br />Engineer before erecting. This <br />avoided any conflicts occurring <br />after the member was already <br />erected. <br />Miami Senior High School - A <br />specific example of the success <br />of our quality control system <br />occurred in the planning of the <br />parking garage foundations and <br />civil underground work at Miami <br />High School. In this example, <br />careful overlay of the new <br />structural foundation components <br />and civil underground systems <br />were completed to find that major <br />conflicts existed between the civil <br />and structural design. Had this <br />design flaw not been identified, <br />this could have resulted in major <br />costs for fabricating new civil <br />structures or re-work of new <br />structural foundations. The result <br />of notifying the design team of <br />these conflicts, allowed redesign <br />of the civil package and ability to <br />maintain the existing structural <br />design, saving the Owner tens of <br />thousands of dollars in re-work. <br />QUALITY CONTROL EXAMPLES
